YesAsia 2018 Bestsellers - Chinese Books

Written by YumCha! Editorial Team Tell a Friend

The below rankings are based on sales of Chinese books on YesAsia.com from January 1 to December 31, 2018.

TOP 10 CHINESE BOOKS

Yi Shu just keeps on writing, and her readers also keep on reading. The popular and prolific Hong Kong author's novels and prose occupied half of the 2018 top ten Hong Kong bestsellers. Bolstered by the buzz of his hit TV show, TVB actor and action choreographer-turned-celebrity chef Steve Lee claimed the third and fourth spots with his cookbooks. For Taiwan, the latest book by famous TV host Kevin Tsai came in first. Books by Chang Man Chuan, Jeff Chang and Peter Su were also well-received.

TOP 10 CHINESE PHOTOBOOKS

TV actors Shirley Yeung, Ben Yuen and Moon Lau took over the top three Hong Kong bestsellers with their first photobook releases. Meanwhile, young female celebrities like Michiyo Ho, Ou Yang Nana and Chang Chin Lan were favored for Taiwan photobooks. Photographer Timothy (Yan Ren Wu) also has two photo collections in the top ten. For film and television-related books, Ming Xiao Xi's classic fantasy novel The Flame's Daughter and Tangqi Gongzi's Eternal Love made it into the top ten thanks to the popularity of their recent TV adaptations. Books and novelizations of the hit Chinese series Story of Yanxi Palace, Taiwan BL drama HIStory2 and Thailand BL drama SOTUS were also popular with fans.
